The lower mount on one of my R-Sport rear shocks broke.
I'd just replace the shock, but they are no longer available.

Anyone know if this lower mounting piece is replaceable?
It looks like its treaded on.
Maybe a Bilstein part?
I scrolled through a bunch of Bilstein parts pages, but couldn't find anything like it.

Given these were NOS when I installed them last year I'd like to be able to keep using them.

I checked the R Sport catalog and didn't find any service parts for those shocks.

Unfortunately, the end of that shock was not meant to be replaced, at least not in the field.

You might be able to have it welded.

Sometimes NOS parts don't last or even work at all.

I bought a set of NOS Decarbon rear shocks for a customers 1963 Lancia Flavia Zagato off of ebay and 1 of the shocks had lost it gas charge and needed to be rebuilt right out of the box so I got stuck with them.
